I just did it on my hatch it's pretty easy , you just have to replace those that have brown covers , if led doesn't light up , switch sides

Yup no problem.

The cluster bulbs plug right in. The ones in the climate control are a bit harder. I took a razor knife and trimmed down the base of the bulb. Super easy to do though. When you install them make sure you press them in tight. I used pliers to push the climate control bulbs in. I didn't seat one right in the cluster and now it blinks. If you buy the lights on amazon you will have 11 extra LEDs for replacements if needed.
